15、That trick has( 40 ) me a lot of trouble. Many people, including some policemen, believe eye contact is a good( 41) of honesty. If someone cant look you directly in the eye, then he or she is not playing ( 42 ) ,they insist. After many experiments, however, however, a number of experts have found ou
16、t that good liars can make( 43 ) eye contact. Eye contact, though not a ( 44 ) sign of dishonesty, is a clear way to show interest in another person. When a person looks at you and ( 45 ) to do so, you know his(46 ) is placed on yon. When he turns his head away, his mind is probably ( 47) .But there
17、 are exceptions. A( 48 ) person may have trouble making and keeping eye contact, no matter how interested he is in the other person.

It is remarkable first what it contains: the range of news from local crime (犯罪) to international politics, from sports to business to fashion t
31、o science, and the range(范围)of comment and special features(特写)as well, from editorial page to feature articles, from interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre, and music. A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it never completely, never straight through, but always by jumpin
32、g from here to there, in and out, glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. what brings this variety tog
33、ether in one place is its topicality(时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的)value. For all these reasons, not
34、two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day s paper, his own selection and sequence (顺序), his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently which means getting what you want from them without missing things you
35、need but without wasting time, demands skill and self- awareness(意识) as you modify(改变)and apply the techniques of reading.55. A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following except its_.A. wide coverage B. uniform style C. speed in reporting news D. popularity56. According to the passage, the
36、 reason why no two people really read the “same”newspaper is that_.A. People scan for the news they are interested inB. different people prefer different newspapersC. people are rarely interested in the stone kind of newsD. people have different views about what a good newspaper is57. It can he conc
37、luded from the passage that newspaper readers_.A. apply reading techniques skillfully B. jump from one newspaper to anotherC. appreciate the variety of a newspaper D. usually read a newspaper selectively(有选择性地)58. A good newspaper offers “a variety” to readers because_.A. it tries to serve different
38、 readers B. it has to cover things that happen in a certain localityC. readers are difficult to please D. readers like to read different newspapers59. The best title for this passage would be_.A. The Importance of Newspaper Topicality B. The Characteristics of a Good NewspaperC. The Variety of a Goo
39、d Newspaper D. Some Suggestions on How to Read a Newspaper C In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the childs acquisition (学会) of each new skill- the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting(诱惑)to hurry the child b
40、eyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads.
41、 On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities(机会), he loses his natural enthusiasm(热情)for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may he especially st
42、rict in money matter, others are severe over times of coming home at night or punctuality(及时)for meals. In general, the controls imposed(施加的)represent(代表)the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the childs own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards in the
43、growing child, consistency(一致性)is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality(道德). Also, parents should realize that example is better than percept (认知)”. If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach(说教), their c
44、hildren may grow confused and emotionally insecure(不确定)when they grow old enough to think forthemselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parentsprinciples and their morals can he a dangerous disappointment.60. Eagerly watching
45、the childs acquisition of new skills_.A. should be avoided B. is universal(普遍的)among parentsC. sets up dangerous states of worry in the child D. will make him lose interest in learning new things61. In the process of children s learning new skills parents_.A. should encourage them to read before the
46、y know the meaning of the words they readB. should expect much of themC. should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their own.D. should create as many learning opportunities as possible.62. The second paragraph mainly tells us that_.A. parents should be strict with th
47、eir childrenB. parental controls reflect only the needs of the partents and the values of the communityC. parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for benefit of the children aloneD. parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situation63. In moral matters
48、, parents should_.A. observe the rules themselves B. be aware of the marked difference between adults and childrenC. forbid things which have no foundation in morality D. consistently ensure the security of their children D The report came to the British on May 21,1941. The German battleship Bismarc
49、k, the most powerful warship in the world, was moving out into the Atlantic Ocean. Her task: to destroy the ships carrying supplies from the United States to war- torn English.The British had feared such a task. No warship they had could match the Bismarck in speed or in firepower. The Bismarck had
50、eight 15 - inch guns and 81 smaller guns. She could move at 30 nautical(航海的)miles an hour. She was believed to be unsinkable.However, the British had to sink her. They sent our a task force headed by their best battleship Hood to hunt down the Bismarck. On My 24, the Hood found the Bismarck.It was a
51、 meeting that the German commander Luetjens did not want to see. His orders were to destroy the British ships that were carrying supplies, but to stay away from a fight with British warships.The battle didnt last long. The Bismarcks first torpedo(鱼雷)hit the Hood, which went town taking all but three
52、 of her 1,419 men with her.But in the fight, the Bismarck was slightly damaged. Her commander decided to run for repairs to France, which had at that time been taken by the Germans. The British force followed her. However, because of the Bismarck s speed and the heavy fog, they lost sight of her.For
53、 two days, every British ship in the Atlantic tried to find the Bismarck, but with no success. Finally, she was sighted by a plane from Ireland. Trying to slow the Bismarck down so that their ships could catch up with her, the British fired at her from the air. The Bismarck was hit.On the morning of
54、 May 27, the last battle was fought. Four British ships fired on the Bismarck, and she was finally sunk.64. The Bismarck sailed into the Atlantic Ocean_.A. to sink the Hood B. to gain control of FranceC. to cut off American supplies to British D. to stop British warships reaching Germany65. We learn

The British air strikes. B. The damage done by the Hood.C. Gunfire from the British warships.D. Luetjens decision to run
57、for France. E Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society.
58、There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition(此外), there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance(容忍)in mixed societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more areas of life to d
59、ecision. In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity(机会)for change because everything seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least customary and undisputed(明白的). Within a
60、 society, social change is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects(方面)of the culture than in the non- material, for example, in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early, in the less basic and les
61、s emotional aspects of society rather than in their opposites; in the simple elements rather than in the complex(复杂的) ones; form rather than in substance(物质);and in elements(元素)that are acceptable to the culture rather than in strange elements.Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual. F
62、or example, it comes more readily in human relations on a continuous scale(规模)rather than one with sharp dichotomies(一分成). This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to Black Americans as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in appearance between them a
63、nd their white counterparts.68. The passage is mainly discussing_.A. two different societiesB. the necessity of social changeC. certain factors that determine the ease(容易)with which social changes occurD. certain factors that promote social change_.69. According to the passage, which of the followin
64、g is NOT true?A. Social change tends to meet with more difficulty in basic and emotional aspects of society.B. Disagreement with and argument about conditions tends to slow down social change.C. Social change is more likely to occur in the material aspect of society.D. Social change is less likely t
65、o occur in what people learned when they were young.70. Social change is less likely to occur in a society where people are quite similar in many ways because_.A. people there have got so accustomed(习惯于) to their conditions that they seldom think it necessary to changeB. people there have identical
66、needs that can be satisfied without much difficultyC. people there are easy to pleaseD. people there are less disputatious(好争辩的) 第四部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节:短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分) A.There are any very good things about open education.
